Following up on Koz's suggestion to discuss how plugin developers are monkey patching AR, I'd like to share some of things my coworkers and I have done.
1.) Truncate. Currently implemented in ActiveWarehouse ETL for MySQL. 2.) Bulk import and export using the DB's tool (for example, bulk import with LOAD DATA INFILE for MySQL or BCP for SQL Server). ActiveWarehouse ETL currently implements the import functionality for MySQL only. 3.) Views support. I've redefined tables, created a new method for views and a new method to get the SQL query used for the view, and added a supports_views? method. This is implemented in the Rails SQL Views plugin. One other thing I would like to see is for the following methods to be moved out of AR::Base if possible and moved into the adapter layer or into their own module so they can be reused easier: sanitize_sql replace_bind_variables replace_named_bind_variables quote_bound_value raise_if_bind_arity_mismatch V/r Anthony Eden -- Cell: 808 782-5046 Current Location: Melbourne, FL --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
